On Sunday, December 1, 2024, at 1 p.m. U.S. Pacific Time, watch the premiere of The 52 Weeks – a grand concerto in the Baroque style, consisting of 52 movements representing each of the weeks of the year. The music was generated using the Udio v1.5 AI platform using prompts by U.S. Transhumanist Party Chairman Gennady Stolyarov II. Mr. Stolyarov curated the music and utilized the DALL-E 3, Grok 2, and Flux AI platforms to generate accompanying images, mostly in the styles of representational paintings from the 17th through 19th centuries. Historical artworks by artists such as Canaletto, Joseph Wright of Derby, Ivan Aivazovsky, Willem van Nieulandt, Jakob Philipp Hackert, Arthur B. Davies, Camille Corot, and Armand Guillaumin were included with certain movements.
This kind of music would have been performed at Enlightenment Salons during the early-to-mid-18th century and reflects the styles of composers such as Antonio Vivaldi, Arcangelo Corelli, Georg Philipp Telemann, Georg Friedrich Handel, and Johann Sebastian Bach.
